Lower Hillhampton

This is a former pair of estate cottages, now a house, dating from the mid-19th century and altered in the 20th century. The building is constructed of red brick with stone dressings and has tiled roofs. It combines Tudor-Gothic and Swiss Chalet architectural styles. The central block is set lower than the flanking porch blocks, and there’s a central chimney stack. The house is single-storied with an attic, arranged in a 1:2:1 pattern, with doorways originally on the outer ends (the left-hand doorway is now a window). There are two gabled dormers to the central block, and 2-light casement windows with lattice glazing are found throughout. Square-headed hoodmoulds are above the windows, although the one on the lower right of the central block now covers a French casement. A stable door on the right-hand side has a shouldered lintel and a gabled canopy. Decorative barge boards and finials are present, and the roof features bands of fishscale tiles and decorative ridge tiles, as well as diagonal plan shafts to the chimney stack.
